Early this year Doug Cramer suggested we start
a new competition with a goal of to
achieve 3 objectives, provide another cash award for a lucky/skilled SWT
team or member, to help fund raise for the SWT and to raise funds to be
donated to a charity.

Doug's suggestion was to start a big fish pool with
50% of the pool being awarded to the member/team catching the biggest fish
of the season (during one of the SWT events), 25% would be kept by the SWT
for future expenditures and 25% would be donated to a charity chosen by the
SWT executive.

The pool was an outstanding success with 142 of our members paying $20 to
enter the pool. The largest fish, weighing in at 11.86 lbs. was caught
at the Sask Landing tournament by Clarence Neufeld and Garth MacLean.
Clarence and Garth were awarded a $1420 cheque at the Rowan's tournament
awards night.

The charity selected for the donation was the
Kids Help Phone and they were very
pleased to accept our donation of $710.00 and gave us a thank you card with
the hand written note shown below.

Thank you to all the members that entered the
pool and special thanks to Doug Cramer for suggesting this and donating to
trophies for this award.
